Black Flag Resynced, DOOM & Echoes Of Aincrad ft. DreamcastGuy | Between Levels Podcast Ep. 4

WheelieAverage, Sarthe, and FightinCowboy are joined by special guest DreamcastGuy for Episode 4 of Between Levels.

In this episode, we discuss Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced and how it revitalizes one of the franchise’s most beloved games, our disappointment with Echoes of Aincrad, and the Revelations DLC for DOOM: The Dark Ages.

We also share our Fantasy Critic predictions for Mortal Shell 2 and Valor Mortis, discuss the future of physical media and digital game ownership, reflect on classic games including Skies of Arcadia and Final Fantasy VII, and reveal some of our most controversial gaming opinions and guilty pleasures.
